With eight thousand cries,
The lil' cuckoo's bloodred tongue
Like a flame singing.
With eight thousand cries,
The lil' cuckoo's bloodred tongue
Like a flame singing.
The saying has it that the little bird keeps singing
even as it coughs up blood.
The best friend I had kept singing as well.
She kept singing and paid in blood.
I want to see you...
I hate... that I can't...
Hibiki!
The Swan Songs of the Valkyries
The best friend I had kept singing on the battlefield.

Miku, where are you?
I'm already at the stadium!
Sorry, something cropped up...
What, why? You were the one who invited me here!
My grandma in Morioka got into an accident,
and Dad's gonna drive us there now.
I barely know these singers...
I'm really sorry...
I'm starting to think there's a curse on me.
It's hard to fill in the time, isn't it?
Just before the show starts is the hardest.
I'm dying to go wild on stage, but no, he won't let me.
Yeah...
Oh, oh, Tsubasa. Don't tell me you're nervous.
That's just normal!
Ms. Sakurae said today's especially...
Why are you so serious?
Kanade, Tsubasa. There you are.
Commander...
If it isn't Old Man Genjuro!
I trust you understand that today is—
Of paramount importance, yeah. We know.
No sweat.
I'll hold you to your word then.
The show tonight will decide the future of mankind.
Cheerio! Sakurae Ryoko speaking.
We're done with the preparations.
Got it. Be there soon.
Leave the stage to us!
Thanks for your purchase.
So, let's leave all the hard stuff to the Old Man and Ryoko,
and do what we do best on stage!
You take this too seriously, Tsubasa.
A reed before the wind lives on where oaks fall.
Kanade...
You're my partner, Tsubasa.
None of this is fun if you look like that.
If we don't enjoy it, how could the audience?
Right?
I'm sure it'll work out as long as we're together.
Let's go, Kanade.
Yeah! We are Zwei Wing, the two wings that can reach the ends of the earth.
We can overcome anything!
Can you hear me?
My song will echo
unto the heavens
Can you hear me?
This is the beginning of life
Let's put love into it
The stars far away
turned into a canopy of music
The moment the wind swept the darkness away
we both sang a song of our love
And
our dreams
started coming true
and a world which none had seen
stretched out
before us
It's just me
Even God knows nothing
of the history we will write with the light we hold
It shines on the future
with a light from the past
Shall we fly together?
Just feel it
Tearful songs, you know
are like feelings in your hand
Reach out and give it to the sky
That is our power
because together, we are two wings of a
sing

I can't look away! My heart is pounding!
Amazing! This is my first live concert!
Phonic gain growth within expected range.
I guess we can see it as a success then.
Great job, everyone!
We did it!
It worked out!
We're not done yet!
What is it?
The suppression can't handle the rising internal pressure!
At this rate the creature will awaken and go berserk!
Noise are coming.
It's the Noise!
Help!
I don't want to die! I don't want to die! No!
We need to fly, Tsubasa!
Only we can fight them!
B-But the Commander hasn't...
Kanade!
The dreams now crumbling away
are gathered up by my gentle hands
My tender feelings that seem like they have a life of their own
vanish in a heartblink, like magic come undone
I knew that being strong
is amazingly unusual
I looked up to the cloudless blue sky instead of the disaster around me
Ryoko...
Is Ryoko still alive?
I sacrifice all I have for our meeting
Mephisto is... preparing?
I can withstand all
Once I can feel the wings on my back
I will be free of sadness
and fly high and far away
In your world
Don't miss my departure
For now I will just sing of it all, loudly
and overcome my hardships for you
Maybe we already had a chance to meet
What is...
Until I can sing a song about you
I will keep singing one about me
The suit's running out of power.
Run!
Kanade!
Don't die!
Open your eyes!
Don't accept death!
I used to want to sing with an empty soul and body.
Look how many came to listen today.
That's why I have to sing my best song.
My greatest aria... My swan song...
Don't, Kanade! Don't sing that!
I can hear her song...
Yeah...
This is my last song. The one that will burn my life away.
The Swan Songs of the Valkyries
I'm... alive...
And Now, Back to the Present...
Let us raise our eyes towards the sun
Ridian Private Music Academy
which can rival the love of countless men
Day in, day out, raise your voice
and proudly sing to the melody
Tachibana!
Um... This cutie climbed on a tree and couldn't get down...
So?
Isn't she cute?
Tachibana!
I'm so tired!
The first day in school felt like a hundred climaxes in a row!
I'm sure I'm cursed.
Half of the curse comes from being a goofball,
and the other half from sticking your nose where it doesn't belong.
Call it helping others! It's my hobby, you know!
You've got to draw a line somewhere.
Normal people don't just lend their textbooks to others.
I'll just borrow yours!
Idiot...
Her CD goes on sale tomorrow!
Tsubasa's so cool!
You enrolled in Ridian to follow in her footsteps, right?
She must be important to you.
Tachibana Kohinata Hibiki Miku
Yeah, but I haven't heard from her again.
She's famous, so I don't exactly expect her to meet with me, but...
Kazanari Tsubasa
I'm certain I would have died if it hadn't been for Zwei Wing that day.
On the news they only said Kanade and many members of the audience
were slaughtered by the greatest terror of the world, the Noise.
Was the Zwei Wing's fight part of my imagination?
I feel that if I met Tsubasa, she could tell me what happened back then.
So normal weapons are useless against them.
The echoes of the moment
hit only cruelty
Tsubasa. Gauge their strength and back up the army.
No. I can do this alone.
Tsubasa!
Look at my seething heart
I erased all my hesitation
Wight Slayer
Now it's a flame that devotes all to the ones I'm close to
One Thousand Tears
Without a single prayer on my lips
I slash apart what I see before me
Blue Flash
The JSDF Disaster Relief Squads guided the people to safety,
and damage was kept to a minimum.
That's all.
It happened pretty close by.
That's Kazanari Tsubasa!
She's a real celebrity. It's so hard to just talk to her.
She's the nightingale of the school!
U-Umm...
That was terrible.
She must've thought I was a total weirdo.
Does it matter? She's right.
Are you gonna be done with that anytime soon?
Oh, I forgot. Tsubasa's new CD is going on sale today, right?
But why bother with a CD?
Come on, CDs are a status symbol now!
So won't it sell out?
CD... Symbol...
CD...
Noise!
Tell me about the situation!
We're focusing the signals to triangulate their location.
Miss!
You don't have to be afraid, I'm with you.
Stay with me! You might die here!
Don't accept death!
I am absolutely certain... that she saved my life that day.
She saved me by singing a gentle, yet powerful song.
Are we going to die?
There must be something... There must be something I can do!
Don't accept death!
The signals have focused! We've located them!
We detect another powerful signal in addition to the Noise!
Compare it to the records! Quick!
Could this be an Aufwachenschlagen?
Gungnir?!
Beat of Awakening
Can you hear me?
Please tell me
I look at the cloudy sky, devoid of answers
fly far away
Words are not enough
so accept all I am
Not quite alive I still wish to live
I feel like I know everything
With my song I will bring about
the beginning of eternity for you
So smile
I will embrace you tighter than anyone else
I will never let you go
Yes, never
I don't mind if my dreams
will not come true
Ever since the gears of our fate started turning
Ever since the day that I was born, I've looked for our meeting
I remember you when the wind howls around me at night
Miracles lit up by our song soar towards the heavens
